## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability strale-ip-geolocation-4e81ffd9
```

Example prompt: Can you geolocate the IP address 203.0.113.42 and tell me what country, city, and timezone it's coming from?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need IP geolocation with a verifiable audit trail — the cryptographic chain hashing makes every call auditable, which is valuable for compliance or fraud investigations. Prefer it when operating across the 27 supported countries and when paying per-call via x402 micropayments suits your usage pattern (no subscription required). It is well suited for agents that need trustworthy, independently-tested geolocation data rather than a commodity IP lookup.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or malformed IP address returns a 400 error
- Private or reserved IP ranges (e.g. 10.x.x.x, 192.168.x.x) may return no location data
- IP not found in geolocation database returns empty or unknown fields
- Payment failure via x402 returns 402 and the call is not executed
- Rate limiting or quota exceeded returns 429
- Network timeout or upstream provider outage returns 503

## How this service works

The trust layer for AI agents — 250+ independently tested data capabilities across 27 countries. Execute capabilities via REST, MCP, A2A, or x402 micropayments. Every call returns an audit record with cryptographic chain hashing.

## Output

Returns structured geolocation data for the queried IP address including country, region/state, city, latitude/longitude coordinates, ISP or organization, timezone, and possibly postal code or connection type. Every response includes a cryptographic audit record with chain hashing for provenance verification.
